Wow, it actually seemed people were engaged with playing TMNT III. A very hard and frustrating, but fun game! I personally printed off a map because I thought it would be easier for me to get around. And I was correct. Although, if you play the version on…

Radical Rescue was my first Metroidvania, and I didn’t even know it. Like most kids in the early 1990’s, I was both a big fan of video games and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. So naturally, a good chunk of my somewhat limited childhood video game…

Ian is too busy packing to write his monthly intro. That’s right, we’ve kicked him out. He’s done! Just kidding. He’s taking his spouse, cat, and stuff adventuring across the United States. Speaking of adventures, this month’s game is The Adventures of…

Our boy in the backroom, Nolen, has spent countless hours making a our other boy Prince of Sable from The Frog For Whom the Bell Tolls. Here’s what he had to say about it: I knew when we selected this game that I would want to try and model one of the…

Operation C – War is our Destiny –Jeff Brown

Operation C is a simple game; it’s a run and gun, straightforward and not subtle, like thrash metal (Sodom’s Agent Orange album art looks like a Contra game). Add in the updated weapons; compared to the first Contra, the spread is now weaker and needs a…

Just a reminder that Nolen has been making Nonograms (It’s like Picross, but uhhm… not) themed after every game we have done since 2024. Congrats to him for being so consistent. And these actually are very fun. CHECK IT OUT!

I think a few people were actually into playing Operation C for the first time. I know I had put it on the back burner for a long time. I had actually got it pretty cheap via Ebay auction as a present for my pal Matt aka Angrylanks for his birthday ten…

We all had so much fun with Super C that the Yokoi Dads decided to look for more Konami games we may have missed. We covered the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games early in the club’s life, but never finished off the trilogy with Radical Rescue. Back…

Operation Contra Storm – Lord Reptile

The simplest way to boil down the mission objectives of Operation C on Game Boy is Konami set out to make another version of Super C if it was short, slow, and super sweet. Even the music has reduced speed in response to the slowed carnage on the screen.…
